Hi -
our 850 T5 estate had a new Turbo fitted about 6 months ago. The Turbo was supplied by Turbo Dynamics and fitted by a local mechanic. All was well for a while, but black smoke has started appearing from the exhaust again.
It seems to happen particularly just after a burst of rapid acceleration (not during it). The car doesn't seem to lack power/acceleration - just has lots of smoke coming out of the exhaust at certain times.
I noticed that a small, clear plastic, breather pipe had come-off at one end where it pushes onto a thin, black plastic pipe (about 4mm diameter) close to the turbo. I reconnected this pipe, but it does not seem to have fixed the problem.
Does anyone know what might be causing this?
Thanks for any help.
Cheers,
Nick
